Windows Update Driver
For the last year or so, been seeing a driver update for NVidia Display
Adapters showing up on Windows Update even though all my drivers are the most recent from the NVidia website. What is this driver on the Update page? Is it something separate or is Microsoft just behind in the times? |

Microsoft is just behind the times.

ALWAYS use original updates from the manufacturers sites.
